Writer repeatedly dismissing hesitation in masterful manner (15)
I believe the answer is:
authoritatively
'repeatedly dismissing hesitation in masterful manner' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'writer' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'writer' could be 'author' ('author' can be a synonym of 'writer') and 'author' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
